You're right... that's why the Accent, Fiesta, Versa, and Sonic don't have sedan variants. Oh wait...

I've complete confidence the Yaris sedan will be here to stay. It remains fully available in Canada along side the new Yaris Hatchback.

The new sedan is just a little behind the hatchback since they are technically 2 completely different cars.

.
the take rates on the sedans makes up a smaller and smaller percentage every year. it is a trend that happened overseas a long time ago and will continue here. the take rate on the yaris, versa and accent already favors the hatchback (and im not even sure about the others), and honda didnt even bother with a sedan version of the fit (and has long been the most highly regarded subcompact for some time).

carmakers are only going to bother with subcompact sedans for so long.
